After struggling with anxiety, depression, and weight gain in adolescence, in 2004 Josh let go of over 75 pounds and transformed his life by becoming a health and fitness professional that would coach over 12,000 sessions and evolve into one of the top wellness influencers on iTunes.

In this podcast together, we discover the connections between our emotions and healthy habits to live our best life and enjoy the process. Every week, you'll learn from exceptional people who have dedicated their lives to being a positive force for our global collective.

Get ready for an incredible podcast as we
discuss self-sabotage, and how to bring our destructive
subconscious patterns into awareness.

Why do we sometimes act against our own best
interests when on some level, we also know what's best for
us?

The answer lies in our subconscious motivations.
Most of our unconscious thoughts and patterns were
learned at an early age and programmed deep into our
biology. We all can greatly benefit by understanding how our
subconscious mind affects our health and wellness.

The good news is, we have the ability to
bring the unconscious realm into our
conscious awareness.

As you'll learn on the podcast, there is great
liberation in giving ourselves more space to feel, and
understanding our underlying motivations of why we do what do.
When we begin to take a true emotional inventory, we can turn
off these negative patterns that run on autopilot. This allows us
to gain more self-awareness, shift our internal narrative, and
point our lives in a new direction.

How Our DNA Keeps Us Safe, but Can Lead To Self-Sabotage.

Our DNA wants us to stay safe. Unfortunately, this basic
survival mechanism is causing unwanted consequences in our modern
day society. The ancestral fears that used to be of real
concern from a survival standpoint now manifest themselves
as different forms of anxiety and imagined fears.

The problem is, these imagined fears can create biological
responses similar to those caused by actual survival situations.
Playing out these imagined fears on a regular basis is
wrecking havoc on our nervous system and internal well-being.
It can be challenging to uncover these fears, because many
live in our subconscious mind and have been perpetuated for
years.

Not only do these imagined fears have negative affects
on the physical body, but they hold us back from taking
action, achieving goals, and moving our lives closer to
a desired vision.

There are ways to uncover how these survival mechanisms
negatively affect us. We must take an emotional inventory and
then learn to distinguish between legitimate concerns and our
imagined fears.

How a rebellious mentality can stem from actually wanting
to be controlled.

Top 3 Takeaways From The Show

We need to give ourselves space to feel. This can help us to
identify and stop perpetuating destructive emotions that may
be running on autopilot.

It is important to step back and take an emotional inventory of
our lives. If we can identify the motivations and drives
that lead to destructive behavior, we can adjust before our
subconscious programming and old habits take control.

You can revolutionize your peace and well-being by learning to
distinguish between legitimate concerns and imagined fears. Today's
fears are more imagined and self-created compared to those of our
ancestors that were based on actual survival. If we can stop
the imagined fears from dominating our mindset, we can
cultivate a more powerful and abundant mentality.

soon as you own it, that's when you start to realize the choices
you have."- Mike Bundrant

end up on autopilot from these perceptual filters."
